Remember when Peaches talked about having kind of music for your trunk that was “fat like hambone, and tight like gnat booty”? Neither she nor Outkast specifically knew it way back in ’94, but they were essentially describing Tha Joker’s “Slight Work.” On the track, the Mississippi-bred MC digs his heels into the groove and, once he starts rhyming, his flow is all downhill at a quick pace. Even if you’re not into grippin’ grain and switching lanes, Joker’s colorful enough with his words to keep listeners tuned in for each line.

Joker’s next project, the Meanwhile mixtape, releases on May 8 and serves as a warm-up for the Robert Frost EP to follow.
